I think we should keep the tlc talk to a minimum. JMO
I agree. Speaking ill of someone just reflects poorly on the speaker, anyway. And it's unnecessary.
Why should there be any difference between not speaking about a temp-banned person and a person who voluntarily leaves? Neither one should be gossiped about.
We are discussing her posts on this thread. And the difference between a banned person and one who voluntarily flounces? A lot.
No, you're gossiping about her. Own it. And you're very subjective here. A person was recently temp-banned and you told people not to talk about that person. You shut that right down. But you'll allow and even gossip yourself about this. Double standard much?
Where? I have not discussed anything about HER except her posts on this board, particularly this thread. And when someone is BANNED - that IS the response, the punishment, if you will. She voluntarily left after calling people out.
It's mocking and making fun of her. Laughing at her expense. I would have expected better from you, LL.
Well, you should be happy to know that laughing at it is much better than my REAL opinion of her. I'm taking the high road by not posting that.

You know what? Now I'm just pissed off. And it's Blankie's fault. (See, I can name names, too). I'm so f'ing sick of people thinking they can be all judgmental and mean by bitching about how OTHER people act when taking no responsibility for their own attitudes. tlc just flamed a bunch of posters plus this whole board and I'm supposed to feel ashamed for calling that crap out or tell others not to do it? No. She deleted before anyone could respond to her, so I'll be damned if I'll tell people they have to shut up because of HER actions.

I am ashamed that I spend so much time on a message board talking about stupid stuff!
I NEVER speak about stupid stuff! Bite your tongue.

You'd sound a heck of a lot more convincing if you weren't being so judgmental yourself. Talk about not taking responsibility for your own judgmental attitude. Wow.

I'm not the one sitting there telling people they shouldn't talk about the person that just bitched them out and left.

For someone who claims to be sooooo "bothered" by all the "arguing", you sure manage to do a lot of it yourself.

No, I usually do very little arguing here. But when I hear people trashing a person like what is happening to tlc here, yes, I'll speak up.

And yet you have nothing to say about the trashing tlc did on her way out. But, may I ask when we can expect your "I miss tlc" post or thread?

I guess you missed it. I already posted that it's sad that she left.
What's the point of arguing this, LL? Will it help you or me to be better people? I don't think so. So you can have the last word. I'm not going to continue this.

I didn't start it - you did. We were talking about flounces and you came in with your guilt trip, scolding people. Was it all you expected it to be? Would you have preferred we got mad instead of laughing about it? Or, you just expect everyone else to ignore it when people are nasty to them?

Blankie, thank you. I was napping. Tlc has been here since GT...a long time.
Everyone has forgotten her health issues AND what her mom is going through?
Um , not all of us know the medical issues or lives of every other poster. And I would assume other posters here have life issues too.
Some people have things going on that they don't even talk about. It's not always safe to talk about stuff here. I've found that when I share even the littlest personal stuff about my life people come back and make rude comments at some point or another.

Fine. But I don't know her or have interaction so don't lump me in her stupid list. Everyone has life issues. Not sure how some anonymous arguing on a message board has anything to do with someones "issues".
tlc chose to post and run. She called out posters before she left and gave them no chance to respond. It's a freaking message board and she's on enough of them to know (including this one for how long?) that you get what you ask for. Just ask ed who started this whole stupid argue here thread because he could't just scroll on bye. Grow the hell up people and stop blaming others because you can't deal with the way things really are...sheesh

If she can't deal with this board and goes on here, then how on earth does she deal with life?
I wish her well. I really do.
But I won't lose any sleep over this.

Alright. Anyone who has posted on this thread to date--I don't want to EVER hear them say anything about me bringing "drama" or any other such nonsense to the board. This is the SIXTH page of this thread--much of which has been about me--and this is my FIRST post.
You all create enough drama, yourselves, without me. That another poster left is not my, or anyone else's fault. I have not once interacted with that poster since I've been back--and only RARELY before.
Many of you want to pile on me--but again, this is my FIRST post on this thread, three PAGES after said other poster did their flounce. Better look in a mirror if you want to see who is causing problems on the board.

Yes. But who REALLY creates the drama? It is self created by the handful of people here who are always trying to tell others how to post. Then go on endlesd whinefests about how offended they are blah blah. And of course everyone is just supposed to know that Oh my gosh they have problems and somehow because they do that you posting an opinion on Obama well is just sooo devastating to them. Yet they have no personal responsibility. Uh huh.

Phfffft. ONLY half the thread is about you.
They really love you, ya know. Well, some...
They really LIKE the drama.
Boring as hell without it. IMHO

I still find it so ironic that ed started a thread about arguing here. It didn't stop the arguing on other threads but it was enough to create the first flounce of the year. Telling people how to post is never a good idea. For those of you who want to dispute that he started this thread about husker all you need is to read the very first post. I know ed's posse will deny it but ed started this thread so people could pile on husker but it kind of backfired in a big way.

Flouncers gonna flounce.
People post on message boards for a myriad of reasons. She has left before, back on GT, when things got especially nasty.
